Distribution

18.

Distribution:
the flow of goods and services from producer to consumer

19.

Canada’s sheer size and sparse population cause
special distribution problems.
It costs a great deal of money to transport goods from those who
produce the goods to those who consume them.

20.

There are six elements in the distribution process:
Producers
Processors
Manufacturers
Wholesalers
Retailers
Consumers

21.

Producers:
Extract raw materials from the earth.
Mining, agriculture, oil exploration are examples.

22.

Processors:
Few materials are useful in their raw state, they must be altered to
be useful. Processors alter the raw materials.
Iron ore is made into steel
Oil is turned into gasoline

23.

Manufacturers:
Manufacturers alter the processed raw materials into products
for the consumer.
Steel is turned into an automobile.

24.

Wholesalers:
Wholesalers are businesspeople who purchase goods and in
large quantities and resell them in smaller quantities at higher prices.
There are three major types of wholesalers:
• Merchant Wholesalers
• Agent Wholesalers
• Manufacturers’ Representatives

25.

Merchant Wholesalers:
They take full ownership of the goods purchased from the
manufacturers.
Once the sale is completed, the wholesaler takes possession of
the goods, then stores and and warehouses them.
The merchant wholesaler then finds customers for the goods.
Merchant wholesalers earn their profits by marking up the price of the
goods they purchase beyond the price that they paid.

26.

Agent Wholesalers:
Agent wholesalers never take ownership of the goods.
They arrange for the sale of the goods between manufacturers and
those that wish to purchase the manufacturers’ goods.
Agent wholesalers are usually paid on commission, a percentage
of the sale, by the manufacturer.
Manufacturers often prefer to deal with agents because of their
expertise. Agents know the product, the parts of the country that
represent the best sales opportunities and the types of consumers
who will purchase the item.

27.

Example:
A manufacturer in Singapore wishes to sell a new line of ski boots
in Canada.
The Singapore manufacturer will contact an agent wholesaler in
Canada who specializes in skiwear.
This agent will be familiar with the retail stores and the parts of
Canada that represent the best possible market for the item.
The agent will visit the stores, bring samples and take orders.
The orders will be sent by the agent to the manufacturer and the
manufacturer will ship the product directly to the store.

28.

The Singapore manufacturer will invoice the store for the cost of the
boots.
The agent will receive the predetermined commission from the
Singapore manufacturer once the sale is completed.

29.

Manufacturers’ Representatives:
Some manufacturers set up their own wholesale divisions.
The division is comprised of manufacturers’ representatives who
specialize in the wholesaling of the manufacturer’s products

30.

Retailers:
Retailers sell directly to the consumer and make it convenient for
consumers to purchase goods.
Without retailers, consumers would be forced to seek out wholesalers
or go directly to manufacturers’ factories to obtain goods they need.

31.

Types of Retailers:
Specialty Stores
Single-line Stores
Convenience Stores
Department Stores
Supermarkets
Machine Vendors
Roadside Establishments
e-tailing
Discount Stores

32.

Specialty Stores:
They carry a broad line of goods, all directly related.
A women’s wear store carries skirts, blouses, suits, belts, hosiery,
coats, slacks, and accessories for women.
A sporting goods store carries sports equipment, clothing, and
accessories for a wide range of sports.

33.

Single-line Store:
Carry a wide variety of one product.
Opticians and Second Cup are examples of single-line stores.

34.

Convenience Stores:
Are located in most neighbourhoods and obtained their name
because they are situated close to those who use them and in most
cases are open long hours.
They carry a large variety of necessities for the home, including milk,
eggs, bread, and other everyday items.

35.

Department Stores:
Are usually part of large chains (a chain is a group of stores that are
managed through a central office).
These stores provide a wide range of consumer goods in specialized
divisions or departments such as sporting goods, ladies’ wear, or
furniture.
Examples are Sears, The Bay, Walmart.

36.

They are large-scale food retailers.
Examples are Loblaws, Sobey’s, Longo’s, No Frills, and Metro.

37.

Machine Vendors:
Are businesspeople who place vending machines in certain contracted
locations.
The vendor is responsible for stocking and maintaining the machines.

38.

Roadside Establishments:
Usually located in agricultural growing areas.
They are highly seasonal operations that do large volumes of business
when crops are being harvested.
Consumers are often encouraged to stop and purchase fresh fruit,
vegetables or pies.

39.

e-tailing:
The selling of retail goods on the internet.
Examples are ebay, Amazon, Dell.

40.

Discount Stores:
These stores depend on selling a large quantity of goods at a low price
in order to maintain profitable operations.
